Date: Fri, 26 Sep 2003 12:23:28 -0400 I wouldn't touch another FMR with a 10 ft pole. As I mentioned earlier, of the 3 I've had and of the 5 others I caused to be purchased by my recommendations, all are now broken in some way or the other. I took my third one back yesterday and got a store credit from Best Buys. I went across the street and bought a Recorder 20 from Circuit City along with a replacement warranty. This is the "old" formfactor with AA batteries and feels MUCH more substantial. I'd rather have the LiIon batteries but I'll accept the NiMH's. One advantage of the old formfactor is that the battery ridges protect the keyboard somewhat from damage. John On Fri, 26 Sep 2003 10:42:26 -0500, "Kevin R.
